HONOR Magic 8 Pro vs Samsung Galaxy S25 Enterprise Edition
Our Verdict: The HONOR Magic 8 Pro leads on camera hardware with a 200MP main sensor to the Samsung Galaxy S25 Enterprise Edition's 50MP, plus a 50MP selfie camera against 12MP, and the Magic 8 Pro has the bigger battery of the two, 6270mAh against 4000mAh, which should mean longer between charges in day-to-day use. The Magic 8 Pro has the stronger screen, bigger at 6.7" against 6.2" and sharper at 455 PPI, and the Magic 8 Pro goes up to 512GB of storage, where the S25 Enterprise Edition tops out at 128GB. Get the Magic 8 Pro if those extras are worth it to you; otherwise the S25 Enterprise Edition covers the basics for less.
If you'd rather pay up front, the S25 Enterprise Edition is the cheaper buy at £549 SIM-free.
